Since Imangi Studios developed a revolutionary game called Temple Run, it halted all other businesses in mobile gaming world. Why not, the game has a good game-play very addictive graphics & time to time update which keeps up the interest of the player intact. But after this many of the game developers started juggling their heads to keep up the competition with this. Many failed while many were quite successful. Here are some few successful Android games (some of them are available for iOS or Windows maybe) which received quite good critics & user's reviews.

Run, vault, slide and climb using extraordinary techniques based on the urban ninja sport of Parkour all while being chased by “Big Brother” who’s sole purpose is to capture you and bring you back.
Inspired by the practice and principles of Parkour, Vector’s intuitive controls please players of all levels, and sophisticated level designs challenge the most demanding players with fast-paced timing puzzles as the traceur “flows” over the dystopian rooftops.
